faulty corsair vs650w psu ?

New pc gamer · Sep 1, 2014

Hi guys if I play games on my system after about 15 to 30 minutes of playing the psu starts to make a strange ticking noise should I be worried ? Or must I just send it back for a new one ? Its about 3 days old

hard to say I don't think it should be ticking it may be safe to return it cause if its due to a bad part or something fails it may take out something like your vid- card or the board with or it may last a life time.. your call

Are you absolutely sure, its the PSU thats making the noise? It could a fan hitting a wire. Open up the case and play the game to find the source of the noise.

well for me if I felt it may cause a overvoltage or a short and put at risk the rest of my components to get zapped its getting out of there and replaced

better safe then sorry
